A pest object defining the life history
for green peach aphid (Myzus persicae).
Can be used to run the endosymbiont model on GPA.bg_loss derived from Barton et al. 2021 alate_penalty derived from Barton et al. 2021 apterae_walk Placeholder alate_flight Placeholder fun_dev_apt fitted using fit_wang with parameters from Barton et al. 2021 fun_dev_ala fitted using fit_wang with parameters from Barton et al. 2021 fun_imi_neg fitted using fit_imi_barton to describe constant immigration of 50 adults from background population fun_imi_pos fitted using fit_null to describe no new introductions of R+ adult fun_emi fitted using fit_emi_thack to describe a constant emigration rate based on Thackray et al. 2004 fun_temp_loss fitted using fit_supergaus with parameters from Barton et al. 2021 fun_rainfall_loss fitted using fit_rainfall_thack with parameters from Barton et al. 2021 fun_sen_loss fitted using fit_gompertz with parameters from Barton et al. 2021 fun_dens_fecund fitted using fit_bannerman with parameters from Barton et al. 2021 fun_temp_fecund fitted using fit_quadratic with parameters from Barton et al. 2021 fun_age_fecund fitted using fit_weibull with parameters from Barton et al. 2021 fun_alate_prod fitted using fit_alate with parameters from Barton et al. 2021 fun_damage fitted using fit_null to be fixed to zero (no direct feeding damage)
